Introduction to Aerospace Engineering
About This Course
Demonstrate fundamental understanding of basic concept of flight, aerostructures and propulsion systems together with the important classes of materials used in airframes and aero-engines.
Describe basic aircraft systems and its operations and requirements and the Mechanical engineering aspects of aerospace system design and function plus the elements of radar and navigation systems, navigation and landing systems, aircraft electrical power, requirements for radar and actuator systems
Recognise the interrelationships underpinning the laws governing these two disciplines.
Define the basic aerodynamics lift and drag forces and general aircraft flight performance and propulsion.
Identify the general concept of aerospace engineering and the general aircraft systems and avionics involved in the operation of an aircraft.
Describe flow visualization, Benoulli’s, wind tunnel, pressurization and aircraft systems through experiments.
Execute computer simulations and extract data and perform analyses.
